discuss are: lack of fertile soil‚ uneven distribution of rain‚ poor transportation to market and poor attitude towards farming. Firstly‚ let’s take a look at the lack of fertile soil‚ which makes it difficult for farmers to produce a good crop. The Bahamas has no real soil profile. It is shallow‚ does not retain fertility or water‚ and is always thin‚ patchy or stony. This is a problem because the crops will not grow properly and the soil will be of no use to farmers. Our soil is infertile because it

components is critical to understanding this frequent outcome. Drylands are characterized by water scarcity stemming from the conjunction of low water offer (i.e.‚ precipitation) and high water demand (i.e.‚ water lost to the atmosphere as water vapor from soil via evaporation and from plants through transpiration). Drylands ’ precipitation is highly variable through the year and occurs in infrequent‚ discrete‚ and largely unpredictable events. In turn‚ the high evaporative demand of the atmosphere‚ resulting

Lichens are a symbiotic representation of mutualism involving a fungus and a cyanobacterium or alga. Within this mutualism‚ that is‚ a symbiosis in which both organisms benefit‚ there exists a photobiont‚ the cyanobacterium or alga‚ which contains chlorophyll and photosynthesizes‚ producing carbohydrates for use by the fungi and itself. Also‚ there is a mycobiont‚ the fungus‚ whose symbiotic roles include the provision of structure and anchorage‚ protection from dessication‚ as well as providing

these trees. When too many trees are cut down‚ animals (which ones?) have no place to live‚ and water washes away the soil that would have been caught in the roots of the trees‚ then the soil contaminates the waters on your beaches‚ and the fish can’t live! That means you won’t catch as many fish when you go fishing! What do trees do? Trees are beautiful‚ provide shade‚ stop soil eroision‚ … Maybe we can include other science topics that realate to the environment that way our books can be useful

monsoon climate brings very heavy rain and snow‚ and soils are leached and heavy runoff results in soil erosion‚ snow melting results in soil erosion and a rapid increase in river discharge. Moreover some more reasons are because deforestation in head water areas due to increasing population in Nepal and Tibet. Trees cleared for fuel and grazing land ‚ less evaporation more runoff and faster soil corrosion‚ Rivers silt up due to increased soil erosion. This raises the river bed and reduces the capacity

The ideal soil for Christmas cactus is composed of equal parts of garden loam‚ leaf mold and clean coarse sand (not sand from the seashore). Add a quart of wood ashes per bushel of mixture. One-tenth part by bulk of old dry cow manure may be added if garden soil is poor. • Water ~ The plant is not a true cactus

period 2000-2010 were used to compute and analyze the salinity ingression over a decade. The results indicate that there has been an increase in the ingress of sea water into the agricultural fields. This is one of the strong reasons of increasing soil salinity of coastal areas along the Bhavnagar Taluka. At some places in the study area it was also found that salinity is increasing not only because of natural causes but there is a big human intervention in it‚ the prohibition of which is necessary
